  "account": "The Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA) is set to commence the sale of the seized dry-cargo vessel EMMAKRIS III, which is presently anchored in the Chornomorsk port. The vessel, registered to a company based in Rostov-on-Don, Ukraine, was discovered within the Chornomorsk seaport's waters. Crafted in Japan in 2000, EMMAKRIS III boasts a length of 225 meters and a width of 32.26 meters. Its capacity of 73,280 tonnes, coupled with a draft of 6.8 meters, enables it to carry up to seven cargo holds, making it suitable for transporting dry cargo. In April 2023, the Pechersky District Court in Kyiv handed the seized vessel, owned by a Russian enterprise, over to ARMA for management purposes. ARMA has assured that the current sale preparations aim to facilitate a transparent procedure, ensuring the proceeds from the asset's disposal are directed towards the state budget.",
